Today marks the 37th anniversary since Coventry City defeated reigning champions Liverpool 1-0 in the old First Division.

Bob Paisley's Reds went close to taking the lead in the first-half when David Fairclough fired horribly wide following Jim Blyth's parried save.

Fairclough again went close after breaking through before Liverpool were awarded a chance from penalty spot in the 60th minute. However, Blyth was the hero for City as he kept hold of Phil Neal's spot-kick.

Mick Ferguson would make the champions pay for wasted chances when he poked home to seal a famous victory for Gordon Milne's Sky Blues in front of an excited Highfield Road crowd.

The victory moved City into seventh place where they were to eventually finish the season while Liverpool made a late charge to seal second position behind Nottingham Forest.
